Answer:
Stereotype Threat
Explanation:
Stereotype Threat is a very common situation in which all of us are part of at least once in our life. In this kind of situations an individual, which is prone to belong in a group, act´s in a negative or counterproductive way to his interestest´s, just for not being different from the group.
There are 3 things we need to have straight to understand this:
- First, it is almost natural to us human beings to want to belong somewhere: to a family, a group of friends, a job.... we want to be part of the society in which we live in.
- To be part of the group we have to share some "common grounds" (rules, manners, same kind´s of goals and desires, similar moral values, etc.)
- Sometimes this "common grounds" are negative and counterproductive to us (and most of the times they are stereotypes).
Imagine now not the scenario of the tall students, but one more real: about black students. For many years, even nowadays, theres a very common stereotype about black people: they are lazy, they are not succesfull, they are meant to be poor, etc.
Now imagine theres a black girl who want to apply to college and needs to pass a test and the teacher in charge says something like that just before the exam starts. The girl will feel bad and will probably be victim of an Stereotype Threat resulting on her failling (she, at some point, will beleive that what the teacher says is true!).
<u>Nowadays there´s a big worldwide campaign against this kind of phenomena because it is a contributing factor to long-standing racial and genders gaps in both academic and profesional performance.</u>
The Cold War was inevitable from even before the end of WWII. Many soldiers from both the US and USSR knew that they would have to fight each other later on. The conflict started because of the two different system the two country uses, USSR being the communist system, while the USA used the democratic (republic) system.
The war was pretty much to see which country was stronger through military, economics, and diplomacy. Of course, as we see today, the US was able to last longer, with the dissolvement of the USSR.
Two conflicts that they fought was:
1) Korean War: Technically a US victory, as the US's goal was to suppress Communism spread, and, if possible, spread capitalism. They were able to suppress the spread of Communism, and the two states remain separate (as seen today)
2) Afghanistan War (USSR): A US victory, in which they were able to successfully supply anti-communist forces, which forced the USSR to retreat. It is commonly known as "USSR's Vietnam War".
